When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Ditch the recliner?
Daphne, I am not going to tell you whether you can or cannot. Once you understand the principles, and are prepared to act to support your body the decision on how or where you do things will make itself each time.
If you think of the aim as having gravity not act straight down your vagina, then it is simply a matter of tilting the recliner back far enough so that gravity acts through your tailbone or spine. It is ideal to have your pelvic organs tilted forward and resting on the lower abdominal wall, and having gravity reinforcing this position as much as possible , but if the direction of gravity is not giving you symptoms then there is no problem.
Now, if you had a bad cough, I would be discouraging you from coughing while lying back in the recliner.
POP does not exist in a vacuum. It is only one set of things that happens to any of us. We have to compromise in lots of ways through life. That's just the way life works. I am sure you will figure out a way to give your body the best deal you can. Good luck to you.
